Guide Post: Press-Fit, Friction Post, 2" OD, 11" OAL, Hardened Steel MPN:5-1644-1

The press-fit friction guide post is designed to hold round barstock securely during machining, eliminating the need for clamping systems that can introduce errors and imperfections. Made of hardened steel, this tool is engineered to provide precise alignment and stability for turning or boring operations on machines such as CNC lathes. Measuring 2 inches in outside diameter with an overall length of 11 inches, the guide post has a tapered shank that tightly fits over the machine spindle, delivering consistent results across a wide range of material types. Its hardened steel construction provides long-lasting durability, while the friction fit ensures a secure, wobble-free hold on the workpiece for precision machining without marring or distortion. With applications in various industries including automotive and aerospace manufacturing, this guide post offers exceptional value for demanding production environments.
